The brake warning light warns of either handbrake on, low brake fluid or a blown brake light bulb. If it comes on when you brake, it's a bulb, but since it's constant, it's probably low fluid.

Not if you have a leak...
if not that then what do u think?
First check all five brake bulbs light up when you press the brake pedal. Then check the switch at the handbrake lever; it shouldn't have continuity with the lever fully down. If it's neither of these three things, then it might be a problem with the warning light cluster. Time for some resoldering.

BTW, the ebrake light is on the idiot/warning panel. not the logicon.

The Logicon is the climate control panel.
